Answer:

b=-5

Step-by-step explanation:

Divide by -9 to eliminate the -9 on -9b

(Since -9b is the same thing as -9 times b we can use the inverse of multiplication which is division to eliminate the -9 from b but we need to do it on both sides to make it balance)

-9b/-9=45/-9

b=-5

Simplify the expression state any excluded values<br> 2a^2-4a+2<br> ---------------<br> 3a^2-3

chubhunter [2.5K]

Answer:

The simplified form is $\dfrac{2(x-1)}{3(x+1)}$ .

$x =1$ is the excluded value for the given expression.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The expression given is:

$\dfrac{2a^2-4a+2}{3a^2-3}$

Let us simplify the numerator and denominator separately.

The numerator is given as $2a^2-4a+2$

2 is a common factor in all the three terms. So, we factor it out. This gives,

$=2(a^2-2a+1)$

Now, $a^2-2a+1=(a-1)(a-1)$

Therefore, the numerator becomes $2(a-1)(a-1)$

The denominator is given as: $3a^2-3$

Factoring out 3, we get

$3(a^2-1)$

Now, $a^2-1$ is of the form $a^2-b^2=(a-b)(a+b)$

So, $a^2-1=(a-1)(a+1)$

Therefore, the denominator becomes $3(a-1)(a+1)$

Now, the given expression is simplified to:

$\frac{2a^2-4a+2}{3a^2-3}=\frac{2(x-1)(x-1)}{3(x-1)(x+1)}$

There is $(x-1)$ in the numerator and denominator. We can cancel them only if $x\ne1$ as for $x=1$ , the given expression is undefined.

Now, cancelling the like terms considering $x\ne1$ , we get:

$\dfrac{2a^2-4a+2}{3a^2-3}=\dfrac{2(x-1)}{3(x+1)}$

Therefore, the simplified form is $\dfrac{2(x-1)}{3(x+1)}$

The simplification is true only if $x\ne1$ . So, $x =1$ is the excluded value for the given expression.
